Woven textile

ABSTRACT

A woven textile is woven by a plurality of first threads and a plurality of second threads. Each of the first threads is a TPU (Thermoplastic polyurethanes) filament which is integrally formed. The first threads are parallel arranged at intervals. The second threads are arranged at intervals to weave with the first threads for fixation so that the woven textile is formed with a plurality of through holes. Each of the second threads is knotted with the first threads to form a plurality of first knots. Each of the second threads is knotted itself between any two adjacent ones of the first threads to form at least one second knot. The first threads are separated apart by the at least one second knot to prevent the first threads from touching each other.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention

The present invention relates to a woven textile.

Description of the Prior Art

A conventional woven textile is woven by threads in longitudinaldirection and horizontal direction. The woven textile has to be wovenclose to prevent from deformation. However, the woven textile isdisadvantageous in bad permeability because the gap between threads issmall.

In addition, the close woven textile has a bad resilience and extension.When the textile is used in objects which needs better extension, suchas shoe body, the object becomes too tight and without comfort.

Besides, conventional filament is made of material having a badtolerance of extension and wearing. On the contrary, the filament has ahigh tolerance of deformation in radial direction so that the filamentis compressed when knotting to make the knot smaller. Thus, the woventextile has a flat appearance and lacks of three-dimensional appearance.

Another type of woven textile doesn't knot but fixes the threads bymelting the plastic material coated on the threads at the overlapportions of the threads. However, the fixation is weak and easy tostrip. Besides, the filament has a low tolerance of extension.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The main object of the present invention is to provide a woven textilehaving high tolerance of extension. In addition, the woven textile hassufficient structure strength and fixation without step of melting.

To achieve the above and other objects, the woven textile of the presentinvention is woven by a plurality of first threads and a plurality ofsecond threads. Each of the first threads is a TPU (Thermoplasticpolyurethanes) filament which is integrally formed. The first threadsare parallel arranged at intervals. The second threads are arranged atintervals to weave with the first threads for fixation so that the woventextile is formed with a plurality of through holes. Each of the secondthreads is knotted with the first threads to form a plurality of firstknots. Each of the second threads is knotted itself between any twoadjacent ones of the first threads to form at least one second knot. Thefirst threads are separated apart by the at least one second knot toprevent the first threads from touching each other.

The present invention will become more obvious from the followingdescription when taken in connection with the accompanying drawings,which show, for purpose of illustrations only, the preferredembodiment(s) in accordance with the present invention.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

Please refer to FIG. 1 to FIG. 2, the woven textile of the presentinvention is woven by a plurality of first threads 10 and a plurality ofsecond threads 20. Each of the first threads 10 is a TPU (Thermoplasticpolyurethanes) filament which is integrally formed. The first threads 10are parallel arranged at intervals. The second threads 20 are arrangedat intervals to weave with the first threads 10 for fixation so that thewoven textile is formed with a plurality of through holes 30. Each ofthe second threads 20 is knotted with the first threads 10 to form aplurality of first knots 21. (The first thread and the second thread arenot processed by heat for melting.) Each of the second threads 20 isknotted itself between any two adjacent ones of the first threads 10 toform at least one second knot 22. The first threads 10 are separatedapart by the at least one second knot 22 to prevent the first threads 10from touching each other.

In the present embodiment, each of the second threads 20 is made ofartificial sinew, TPU filament, or other conventional filament forweaving. Preferably, the first threads 10 are formed by a singlefilament extending back and forth to be plural rows of first thread 10.

Besides, each of the second threads 20 has an outer diameter smallerthan one fifth an outer diameter of each of the first threads 10. Eachof the first threads 10 is compressed by the second threads 20 at thefirst knots 21 to have an outer diameter which is 0.9-1.0 time anoriginal outer diameter of each of the first threads 10, as shown inFIG. 1A. On the other hand, a distance between any two adjacent ones ofthe first threads 10 is 1-5 times an outer diameter of each of the firstthreads 10, and a distance between any two adjacent ones of the secondthreads 20 is 2-5 times an outer diameter of each of the first threads10.

The first threads and the second threads are fixed to each other byknotting instead of meting. Thus, the threads are fixed firmly, and thewoven textile has a three-dimensional appearance. In addition, the firstthread is made of TPU to be difficult to be compressed radially whenknotting to provide a more three-dimensional appearance. The TPU firstthread further has a higher friction to prevent from slipping. Besides,the TPU first thread has a better tolerance of extension, so the woventextile can be used in wide fields and is more durable. In addition, theTPU filament is better in wear resistance.
